Manchester United captain Harry Maguire says strikers should start watching and learning from Edinson Cavani.

The 33-year-old came off the bench when United were down 2-0 to Southampton on Sunday.

Two superb headers from Cavani saw United clinch a 3-2 victory at St. Mary's.

And Maguire was in awe of his new teammate when speaking after the game.

"I am so pleased for him," Maguire told MUTV. "He has been without a club for a few months so he is coming in and catching up.

"He is a great professional, he is great to have around the place, he is great in the dressing room and I think you saw today what he brings to the club. His movement when the ball is wide is to a level that not many strikers can reach.

"He is always on the move, always getting across people and that's why he has always scored goals. So if there are any strikers out here wanting to learn and watch, I am sure they are studying his movement and what he has done in his career.

"He is great for our strikers to learn from him in training, because he is a nightmare to mark in training as well. Every day he is making those runs across you and we have seen today his movement is very, very good."
